Sophie.

I became a new mom two weeks ago, and her name is Sophie.
I finally have a puppy. 

 It was one of the happiest days of my life, and.. eventhough she is driving me a little crazy.. she continues to make me happy.
She was born December 20th, 2011. So she is two and a half months right now.  Having a puppy this young.. is literally being like a new mom to a new baby.

I don't sleep anymore, i'm potty training her, so she has to go outside every 20-30 minutes.. yes even at night time, which is a HUGE challenge for me because its cold out and.. I love my sleep.. She cries if I walk .. 30 centimeters away from her, so the only place that I can go for longer than an hour or two is work. I can't even take long showers anymore, and she has become my whole life.
She's all I think about, she's all I talk about... What was life before my Sophie??


I have this incredible joy in my life. It is crazy how much I love her already.  Last week, she was diagnosed with Kennel Cough. 
Kennel cough is a highly contagious canine illness characterized by inflammation of the upper respiratory system. If not caught in time, it can cause more serious health problems.
So you can imagine how concerned/stressed I am.  I just lost my cat three and a half months ago. One of the hardest things I have ever had to do, was to say goodbye to our Spud.  I can't even handle the thought of losing my Sophie. Especially at such a young age.  I pray that she will be alright.

Quick Check-In

So I have been sitting here staring at my blog for hours now. Thinking to myself that I should write something, feeling like I should write something, but my mind is a complete blank. I could write about how sick i've been for the past two months.  Lost ten pounds.  One upside. Also almost lost my job. Huge downside.
I work in a daycare alongside the playschool that i've been working at for a year and a half now. Best job i've ever had. I adore the children that I work with and they adore me too. Its always nice to hear "DANA!!" when you get to work and get big hugs everyday.  I love it so much. Very happy there, I don't think I would trade that job for anything.


I'm finally feeling about 90% better!! Which is very exciting for me. Just trying to kick this sinus cold.
Thats about it for now.
